A Fairfield officer about 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday was dispatched to the 6800 block of Terrace Court on a report that the teens were armed with a gun and near a Fairfield business. When the officer found them, behind an apartment building, one of them pointed a gun at the officer and fired, said Fairfield Police Chief Leon Davis.

Residents of the Mattie Gill Jackson Gardens neighborhood and relatives of one of the suspects told Al.com Wednesday that the teens had no gun. Davis, however, said today, "We do have evidence a weapon was fired in the direction of the officer, and a witness did see them with a gun pointed at the officer,'' he said.
